	Story Behind the Song the guitar part in the middle i wrote four years ago. i used to play it on every guitar i could get my hands on, because i liked the way the open E-strings rang while the middle strings moved up and down the neck. when i walked into long and mcquade and played the lick on the gibson cl-30, i fell in love. i bought the guitar, then finished the song. Lyrics More Than I Deserve by Jay Hails verse 1: watch the sun rise over saskatoon we're two miles out on highway 12 i'm 100 miles into you you gave me all the time it took to break the silence no one could disturb you give me more you give me more than i deserve verse 2: is it always gonna weigh this much? do you have to drop the world onto my shoulders every time we touch? for someone with such tiny hands and tender skin you've got a lot of nerve you give me more you give me more than i deserve bridge: i wanna live here all alone with this piano i don't own and that guitar i never play much any more you say your life is circumscribed by jealous chains well so is mine i give you what i can but don't keep score you always give me more verse 3: another broadway basement suite goodbye it always ends with let's pretend and a race to be the first to cry i'm pulling on my boots again i'm almost gone when you throw me a curve you give me more than i came here for you give me more than i deserve
